An A/V signal is converted to an optical signal using a fiber optic transmitter. The fiber optic transmitter uses a VCSEL or laser diode to create the optical signal. A fiber optic receiver is used on the far end of the fiber to convert the optical A/V signal back to an electrical A/V signal using a photodetector.
